Porsche Recalling GT3 Sports Cars for Wheel Hub Defect

German sports-car maker Porsche is recalling certain 911 GT3 cars from the 2010 model year because of problems with their rear wheels that could lead to an increase risk of crashes.

In a document filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the company said the affected vehicles’ rear wheel hubs might be prone to failure in certain driving situations. Porsche also said its original suggested maintenance intervals for the affected parts may not be adequate for preventing the wheel-hub problem.
